Why do I feel so numb towards everything?

Well I know the real reason to this question and that is because I take ad's......so that always makes you pretty zombie like.....but why do I feel so indifferent to everything inc my partner and child

I'm literally on survival mode. I've got the most amazing life, but I just want to curl up and sleep.

I have an almost 3 year old. I'd rather spend time without him than with him , and a partner of 4 years whose such a nice bloke but whose like my flatmate. There's virtually no physical contact , but I'm ok with this.

To the outside we are "perfect" but I just want to hide. I've got no energy to tackle changing it and am just willing time to pass when my son is s bit older so it's not such a battle

It sounds like depression, have you tried anything apart from anti-depressants?

I know this feeling so well.

Yes therapy, cbt, psychotherapy ........

Op I could have written your post. The only way I can describe myself is dead inside and I don’t know how to get out of it.
So Flowers from me, you’re not alone

I'm sorry if others are feeling this way. I wouldn't wish it upon anyone
I can't decide what to do next.....

Are you working OP?

Did you say you were on ADs? Maybe needs time for them to settle.

Do you exercise regularly? I know I feel better when my regular classes, netball and swimming are on.

The thing that's worrying the most is that I feel nothing for my partner. He's going to notice soon and I don't know whether it's my depression or if I just have changed how I feel

Been on ad's for most of my adult life

I do work but not a conventional job, but I like it
